OK...

Either my time estimate in this post was way off, or the amount of texture on the surface of an object is a much bigger factor than I thought it would be. Or both.

I just finished covering a small paper mache treasure chest, and including the time it took me to go through my box of paper scraps looking for the right colors, it took me 1 hour and 45 minutes. At least an hour of that was actually gluing.

The surface area of the chest is 22 square inches, only a bit more than yesterday's frame, which is 19 square inches.

So, using the formula from the earlier post my price for it would be $48.22, which seems really high. If I don't include the "finding the colors" step in the time, then the price comes to $29.59, which seems more reasonable but is still up there.

I think I have to adjust my formula.

Edit: Edited to fix my math. I forgot a step in the formula.

I don't have the manual, but that sounds like the camera thinks there is no card. I would take that card out and try another one.

I found the manual at the following link in PDF. I have a saved copy and will email it to you if you have trouble downloading it yourself.

The link works fine, thank you. (I figured you probably didn't still have a copy of the manual, but thought it couldn't hurt to ask.)
